I don’t know about this fatal flaw due to upgrade, as i never ended a career and never passed 1942 myself...just because i decided to enhance visual stuff in OM 
If there is such problem in OM, maybe i could try to have a look with my FOTRSU friends, but that’s all i can say right now...i’m Afraid.
I have to finish the work i started first 
(Be aware the imported subs you are seeing above are not released yet!)

As for the conning tower issue, we would have to wait for s7rikeback to respond to that, but there were some date issues found. There are many parts that can influence a proper conning tower fitting. Most devices that attach to a submarine do so through the conning tower, including periscopes, snorkel, radar, radar detectors, watch crew, AA guns, etc., so something being "off" with any one part can somtimes influence all the others.  |
Thank you for your replies guys!
I found more information about the problem i was describing here:
http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=205967
It sais that (quote):
"
Conning towers and other upgrades
Both the Typ VII and the Typ IX U-Boat will receive conning tower upgrades as the game proceeds. Every time I was awarded a new "Turm", the result was a submarine that could not move forward, or backward. A "Cannot comply" message was displayed instead. The crew screen showed missing and empty slots. This bug has been experienced and described before, and -as lurker put it- it is a nasty one. So from my experience a conning tower upgrade means end of your career."
The person in that topic also describes a rather elavorate proceedure to (sort of) fix this problem when it occurs.
It also mentions several other problems with the way upgrades work in OM:
"You will notice that the new boat has other upgrades (radar, snorkel, decoy) that you were not offered before, though this equipment was available and you completed successful patrols with thousand and thousand of tons sunk. My guess is: The upgrades in Operation Monsun simply do not work at all."
I have finished installing the game, OM and aditional mods (including this one of course!) And so far
i am in love with it.
However, i confess i am concerned about the issues i read in the topic i linked to above.
Fifi: You mention that the guys from FOTRS did some work to fix OM? Do you have a link to this information you can share? i would love to know what problems they have fixed.
Thanks guys.
